Saturday we got up late I was feeling a little worse for wear haha. Dec and Marnie had gone house hunting so I decided to go for a run to shake the hangover off. It worked..slightly! Anyway I had my trail shift so I got showered and dressed and headed to Baby Boxes where I was run through different procedures and sales techniques. It's an ideal job and very flexible I look forward to hear from them about my next shifts. Ed waited for me as it was raining and I was only 30 minutes and we headed back to meet Dec and Marnie at the apartment. We chilled out and watched a movie- Pacific Rim. Was nice to chill out as I was so tired from the night before. We then tucked into a delicious spag bowl yum yum and went for an evening stroll to Bronte which took us an hour and a half almost 7km. We showered and were all very tired so went to bed.

Sunday we got up and went for a run and managed to do over 5km which is good and we got ready and headed into the supermarket as a family and completed this weeks shop which was massive. We have plenty of food for the week and some yummy meals planned which I look forward to. We got back to the apartment and decided to head out for an afternoon drink at a popular bar called the bucket list down at Bondi beach. It was a lovely day and my lemon lime bitters went down lovely. Marnie got pooped on which is very good luck!! Anyways we headed back and enjoyed a lovely BBQ with chicken sausages and steak and home made potato salad yum yum. Ed and I set off for another walk along the beach and got back feeling again very tired so showered and hopped into bed. We tuned into an idiot abroad and enjoyed the India episode which clearly shows a similar experience to ours haha.

Monday was a rest day so no run today. We headed into the CBD with Dec and Marnie when they started work and we traipsed around darling harbour checking a bar we are meeting friends on Wednesday night and walked all the way to Central quay where the harbour bridge, the rocks and the opera house is. We explored all the tourist sites and checked out our friends hostel as they arrive soon! It started to have a down pour so we hid in the opera house. After the rain we walked back into the city looked around the shops a bit and then headed back on the bus. We had done so much walking we were so tired and hungry. So we watched a film as it started to rain again and caught up on planning and Ed applied for more jobs. I got another call today about a sales and marketing position on Wednesday for 4 days a week, fingers crossed. Dec and Marnie returned and we popped out for our evening stroll before dinner and came back to gorgeous salmon, sweet potato chips and broccoli. I showered and headed to bed. All this fresh air is making me tired early. We also booked our harbour bridge walk today for Lucy, Marnie, Dec, Ed and me.

Tuesday was a boring day and again the weather wasn't that great. Ed got a call today for a job yey at a snow centre which sounds fun and up his street. We spent the morning sorting bits out and decided after a bit of breakfast to attempt another long run. We ran to Bronte and back which is near enough 7km yey!! We then grabbed some lunch and headed to the beach the weather had got nicer so we laid on the beach for the rest of the afternoon. I received another call for another job this time Vans trainers. After a while we grabbed dinner from the shops and headed home to cook our veggy stir fry. After dinner we showered and watched the telly and waited for Dec and Marnie to arrive back. Shortly after going to bed!!

Wednesday we both got up and got ready for our interviews. They were both in different parts of town so went our separate ways. The marketing company I had applied for was definitely not what I had imagined and not somewhere I could really see myself working. Anyways Ed felt not to confident as many had applied for his position. We met back up at Bondi and walked home together. We then made our way down to the beach after a bit of lunch and enjoyed the fantastic weather. We have got our glowing brown skin back again yey as it had quickly faded!! When we headed home we showered and got ready to meet Collette and Marcus two friends from home that have moved to the city for the year. We made our way to The Cargo bar on darling harbour which served $10 steak which we tucked into and had a walk around the harbour to finish the night. It got late very quick and we made our way home all public transport, were getting better haha!!

Thursday I awoke and headed out for a 5km run before getting ready to start my first shift at Baby Boxes. It all seems pretty simple and a similar environment to retail back home so I think I'll settle in no problem. Ed met me after work and we had lunch before again heading to the beach. It was a scorcher at 30+ degrees today so we didn't sit out in it too long before we headed to the supermarket to grab dinner items for Dec. We met the guys back at the apartment. I have decided against this marketing job and aim to spend tomorrow applying for admin and receptionist roles!! Another yummy dinner by Dec- pork loin, sweet potato mash, green beans and kale yummmmy. We headed to bed after watching a Hansel and Gretel film. The weathers meant to turn bad tomorrow :(!!

Yes the weather is bad again! However today I sorted out my banking over here, tax codes and next shifts etc. Ed has gone to his Vans interview!! Hopefully all goes well. I went for a run which was refreshing in the rain and wind different from the heat I've been used to. I sat and waited for everyone to return and watched pitch perfect. Tonight Dec is making lamb which sounds yum can't wait :) Ed met up with his friend from home Brendan after his interview in the city and brought him back to visit Bondi. I met them and we took a walk down to the beach and around before getting a drink at a bar on Bondi. Very windy and cold today which was bad luck for Brendan!! After we headed back arranged to meet Brendan tomorrow and enjoyed our dinner with Marnie and Dec yummmy. I went to bed pretty early again and Ed shortly followed.

Saturday we awoke and decided to run to Bronte again which felt so good and tucked into some breaky before showering. We managed 50 minutes of running almost 8kms!! I sat and planned Christmas plans and we headed down to the beach to meet Brendan Ed's friend that's come to visit for drinks and lunch.
